    Who is Bruce Jenner?

    Come up for air once in awhile pal, your buried too deep in tubes these days. lol

    I know a Caitlyn Jenner...............but Bruce is no more....kinda like PFB is no more. lol.

    Not that buried in tubes........

    H9

    Tony is correct. Legally their name is still Bruce Jenner. It takes lots of time and court proceedings and money to get everything switched over to being not only being called a new name, but having the sex of the person switched.

    I had to deal with this all the time in my old job. Anything that is considered a legal document, you have to use your legal name, which is what I was dealing with. So I would go and call Bruce and do what I had to do. But then get a phone call later telling me the client was upset because I didn't call them Caitlyn.

    Well when you come in with legal proof that your name is now legally Caitlyn that is what I will call you.

    As for PFB, I certainly hope for all of our sakes that the endlessly whining, supposedly victimized, picked upon whiner is gone.

    This has been the only forum I have ever joined and started my audio journey on. I have nothing against anyone here truly I dont but as much as it pains me and will miss everyone here andi mean everyone this is the last post you will ever see me make.

    I am disgusted at the way things happened in my ebay thread. If folks can derail anything and get it censored then thats nothing Iwant to be a part off. With that being said Ijust wana say goodbye to everyone to everyone and I will miss you all dearly. If I neverfound this place and the wonderfuly diverse opinionated members I would not be where I am at today in my beloved hobby.

    Take care everyone and be nice to one another!

    Let's see..........he said goodbye on 8-25, yet his last activity is 8-31. Must have needed to see if he was missed.

    Perhaps he was displeased with Vanilla. I can sympathize. Does Vanilla have a "tantrum" button? :#

    Sort of like the opposite of a "poke" button. Maybe that button was removed, too. :)

    I've said this all along! Although I thought he was older.....like 12 maybe. His ignorance had its entertaining moments no doubt. But perhaps we are one step closer to riding this place of the trolls. Now if only the other trolls would follow suit.

    I dunno, maybe it's just me but, if you think the policies at eBay and PayPal should be changed, why would you complain and start a crusade to have it influenced and changed on Polk Audio's website?

    That's like complaining to McDonald's that your Whopper has sesame seeds on the bun and you hate it so you think it should be changed.

    I dunno guys, PFB wasn't all that bad. I just wish he had posted some reviews of all that nice gear he had roll threw his joint.

    Besides, what the heck are we suppose to do for entertainment now ? I can only poke so much fun at H9 or our Canadian friends. With PFB gone now, it's kinda like going to the movies to see a good comedy only when you get there, the theatre is closed.

    Yeah, wish he had thicker skin. Most of us were just having fun and he seemed to poking some fun at himself too. Still not sure if this was a character he created or if all his stories were true. He could have himself quite the reality TV show if it's all true.

    He might be back eventually and yes, I enjoyed the entertainment value. I wouldn't have put too much stock in his reviews based on what he showed of himself here. Still a little confused why he had accumulated so much gear.........too much gear really. Unless he was just buying and flipping.
